From: Cassidy, Alan ...The only reason to have a program write a file to your IFS is if you got it from someone else (I'm not even going to dignify the concept of writing a program that creates a virus). ==> (x)There are plenty of reasons to have a program write a file to your IFS, good, valid, business reasons. I believe IBM keeps some config files in the IFS. If you're dealing up Java, WAS, Apache, serving up HTML, or whatnot, you probably have some pretty important files inside that there IFS.
Not a file that you got from an untrusted source! Joe
